This is a pretty unpleasant response. Your app very strongly fits my interests but your replies have put a bad taste in my mouth.

- SecurityLagoon 5y agoI think this is just an ESL tone misunderstanding. The content of their post is completely fair and highlights why looking pretty doesn't automatically make it a good product. Nothing about it came off as intentionally trying to be offensive to me.
- SunghoYahng 5y agoI'm sorry if my expressions sounded unpleasant. I had no intention of doing that. It may have sounded that way because I am not sensitive to expressions in English. But I wanted to emphasize that if Mochi made Anki better, our app is a complete upward compatibility with it. Sorry to be rude once again. I also have a strong love for this app, so I think I was being harsh.
- wizzwizz4 5y agoThe main issue was “it's sloppy” and “very outdated”. “Sloppy” implies lack of care went into its creation, which is often seen as an attack on the creator(s). “Very outdated” is imposing your idea of what's “new” and “old” onto your contemporaries, then https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronological_snobbery https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronological_snobbery on top of that. Apart from that, your comment was a fairly objective criticism. When criticising, you should write down all the things you want to criticise, then (without removing any) re-write it so it's as kind as you can to the thing you're criticising. Especially if you're comparing it to something of your own.
- SunghoYahng 5y agoI see. Thank you for your feedback.
